DESCRIPTION
This platform is based on the smart integration of free software components and promote the massive usage of open technologies (LAMP, Asterisk, OpenSIPS) and open API. It has been deployed in Africa and used to stimulate open innovation in emerging countries. It allows rapid prototyping of “telco-web” micro-services on over the top of traditional operator networks using open APIs (SMS, vocal access). It aims to build a reference library of business applications under free licenses. The project has recently joined OW2 and aims to publish 2 versions of the solution: a standalone version and a Telco grade version.

Appendix
Emerginov: Context
Mobile is everywhere IT technologies are generalized
African Youth is skilled, trained and imaginative
Litteracy rate is low and there are lots of vernacular languages
We need a Platform to manage simple telco services (SMS based, kiosk)
Based on commodify hardware
everything including call control could be done through web interfaces/API
Lack of infrastructure and network connectivy limited and not always stable
The platform must be open
Focus on vocal services Organize codecamps, trainings, hackathlon but let local people develop for local people
Use Open source solution to share the dev and production environment

Orange Expo 2010 - Mauritius
Biggest exhibition in Mauritius
More than 45 000 people in 3 days ( 3.5% of the overall population).
2 universities, 6 applications
– SMS Notification API (Rest) used for Traffic watch and buddy locator
– Traffic Watch (road traffic management in Mauritius)
– Buddy locator: localization of friend in Mauritius based on Smartphone/GPS and SMS system
– Pocket Gazette: light maket place employee/employers SMS based
– Call2Play: Use your GSM as a gamepad for collective game sessions.
– Shopping buddy: localization of Mauritius places or shops ranked through Facebook
Event reconducted in 2011 and 2012 (Commonwealth Telecommunication Organizations)

Research contract Orange Money UTM 2012
Micro-services correspond to long tail services
Potentially lots of micro services with reduced trafic
Micro services will generate micro-revenues
A developper can create many micro services
To be realistic, the economy of micro services must be simple and without many intermediates between the service producer and the end user

Orange Money Web API
• Based on a REST Interface
• Applications communicate using HTTP (JSON/XML)
• Communicates with OM using SOAP
• Developers creates their micro-services (web, sms, ussd) which communicates with the Web API
• Bill mobile customers (monthly, by-usage, one-time)
• Can define revenue sharing and loyalty points
• Web Interface for Administrator
• Manage Applications, users, bills, revenue sharing and loyalty points
